My guy DaCorien (DC) Thompson comes flying in to make big tackle on the bubble screen. WR’s better keep their heads on a swivel against our D 🔥🌴✌🏽 #UTRGVditv #UTRGVFootball #RallyTheValley #Puro956 #UTRGV #TheVack #VALLEYBOYZ

North Crowley players literally sprinted after coach Ray Gates to spray him with water for his 50th win. #txhsfb Gates flashed some speed but the Panthers caught up.

That hitter squad walking into battle . UTRGV defense held McNeese to 13 points on road, forced turnovers and QB pressures. #UTRGVDFence #UTRGV #DSQUAD #HoldTheline 🌴✌🏽 Amari Pouncy Thee Jaiden Haygood Elijah Graham TJ Neal Spencer Rich Tamunotekena(TK) Mina Logic Hudgens
